Bath repair in Buckland Dinham, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Buckland Dinham and across Somerset.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
